Hello users and developers alike, the GNU Parted project is currently in the process of switching from Subversion to Darcs. Unfortunately, Darcs seems to eat a whole lot of memory for doing the most simple things...
Have a look:

The latter one is not a pristine tree, just _darcs.
The process eats about 160 memory, which is the point at which it
doesn't get any more (it's a virtual server, obviously with hard
limits). But the changes are very small, so where does the memory
go?
Do we have to ditch Darcs and switch to another VCS? :/
Kind regards,
Leslie
